Abstract
This article springs from the introduction of the psychology team in a dance workshop of the Maré Women Reference Center - Carminha Rosa. Through exploration and body recognition provided in the workshop, we percieved the possibility to let go of an identity and open up to new dimensions and possibilities of being. Thus, the article aims to think the interfaces between psychology and dance, reflecting on the posible contributions of these reflections and productions in the area of gender policies. For that we have done semi-structured interviews with workshop participants and analysis of the psychology team reports that followed the workshop. By exploring the body as the anchoring point of psychology and gender equality struggles, the text concludes that the connection between psychology, body and gender represents a promising possibility both in terms of subjective freedom and overcoming forms of domination of gender perspective, and these perspectives deserve further exploration.
